Some people don't clean anything under the car or out of site. It says older collector, so might have been hard for them to get on ground to clean things. For cooler cover to rust like that, most likely driven in rain or snow or not always garaged. Would be better to just take it off at this point.

The transmission cooler cover is NOT original equipment and the fact that it is rusty just simply shows that the chrome plating on the after market COOLER COVER is not of good quality......JEEZE!

....And the carbon residue inside the baffles is NORMAL for a Prowler with 32K miles. The baffles rarely get hot enough to completely burn off the carbon exhaust that reaches that far away from the engine.

Looks great to me.

My point was the seller's description..made a big deal about "needs nothing"... if I'm going to sell...i'm going to fix the obvious..
Bet u there's a 100 of me to 1 of you that's NOT a buyer after those pics...considering the known problems of paint and chrome (wheels)on these cars..
I'm not ragging the car just hard to sell with that presentation IMO....We will see...jim

Its a trans cooler cover that has rusted. Ditch that and the cooler likely looks good.

Might be a flood victim. Looks like rust underneath. I’d be very leary.

And how do we know for sure if someone might have farted while sitting in the car?????....CAUTION! CAUTION! CAUTION!


BTW.....The trans cooler cover is used to PROTECT the cooler AS WELL AS to enhance it's looks.....The fins on the cooler are very easily bent from rocks and other debris on the highway....Ask someone who has had to replace one...They'll tell you that they'd rather have had a "rusty" cover than a damaged cooler ANY DAY.

Do you speak from experience UB? I've heard that you like to sit in your car after a nice southern meal of possum grits and baked beans and try to rip off cosecutive triple flutter blasts...

I'd suggest you put a plastic bag on your seat in case of the dreaded "Wet One"...

A pretty salty state in the winter I imagine, it will probably need most of the usual, Konis up front for starters.

He states that it has always being stored indoors. Indoors in what? Darn....I have never seen a Prowler that has being indoors look this bad.

A 17 year old car with only 32,000 miles on it (1,882 miles PER YEAR) and people suspect that it was probably "abused?"...

SK at least u and others can see my point (and that was my only point)...even with crappy chrome plating...would take alot more than indoor storage to get that way which means PROBABLY the other NON ALUMINUM parts are SALTY as well...I dont misadvertise my stuff...And yes Ive seen enuff of BJP"S posts to know where he's going....but not with me....

I think it looks a little rough around the edges. My Candy has twice that many miles and looks a heck of a lot better.

401 I got your point right away. The rust on that cooler cover is the type you'd see on a daily driver. Exhaust tips as well. If it was stored in garage probably a very leaky, wet one. Most Prowler owners are detailers and would never let it get like that.
